Following an enquiry from Sam about the Mary Weller award at Yn Cruinnaght, Chloë Woolley tells us she had a root in her stock/archive boxes cupboard at work at Culture Vannin, and, unlike the silver cup she had in mind, discovered . . .

It’s interesting that the plaque at the bottom says: Yn Chruinnaght Solo instrumental 11 years and under
